Revolution is coming. To let you get warmed up, we’ve prepared the Battlefield 1 Summer Missions. These missions are part of a chained series of challenges where we urge you to PTFO and be a team player.

Each mission comes with its own amazing Dog Tag reward and a Squad XP Boost for those who complete it. Succeed in all three and there’s an exclusive melee weapon in it for you: the LVC Arditi Knife. You can also expect another reward that we’re keeping secret for now…

The first Summer Mission is dubbed the Call to Action Mission. Here, your objective is to play, complete, and win three full matches of Operations. This mission is active between July 15 and July 23.

If you complete the mission in time, you’ll get the Call to Action Dog Tag (rewarded on July 31) and a Squad XP Boost (login between July 23 and July 30 to receive this.)

The Battlefield 4 Community Test Environment was a fantastic tool the DICE development team used to test unreleased content in a live environment, tweak and balance features, weapons, vehicles, and more, and even create new maps for Battlefield 4.

As we have moved on from Battlefield 4 to focus on other titles there is no longer any new content to be tested on the Battlefield 4 CTE. During the transition off of Battlefield 4, we kept CTE open for any opportunities to test other proposed content. The Battlefield 4 CTE has served its purpose and there is no further development for Battlefield 4, therefore we will be ending the service on March 6th, 2017. We appreciate all the hours logged by the community, all the feedback you’ve shared, and all the experiences that we had together in the Battlefield 4 CTE.

We thank you for your participation and we’ll see you on the battlefield!

As Battlefield™ 1 is rolling out worldwide, I’m looking back on a journey that started with a daring pitch from the team here at DICE. Fast forward a few years, and it’s almost surreal to see you getting your hands on the final result, facing the dawn of all-out war with the rest of the community.

With Battlefield 1, we wanted to create a fresh new take on the franchise, keeping that classic and unmistakable flavor that is Battlefield intact. It was a gamble. We knew that.

But with such a unique game setting like the Great War, many unique gameplay options came with it. Judging from your reactions (not to mention how much fun we’ve had with the game ourselves) I dare say the gamble has paid off.

Nothing fills me more with joy than hearing your stories from the game – how you won that dog fight, found that weapon pickup, or turned that round of Conquest around at the last minute. I look forward to many more stories of that kind.

We’ve nearly reached the end of the Road to Battlefield™ 1. The game releases worldwide on October 21 (or October 18 if you pre-order the Early Enlister Digital Deluxe Edition), and everyone will finally be able to experience the dawn of all-out war. We’re even hosting a Road to Battlefield 1 Livestream next week, which you can learn about on the Battlefield Livestream page.

But the battle isn’t over in Battlefield 4™ or Battlefield™ Hardline. There’s one last mission you need to report in for – and if you complete it, you’ll get something special in Battlefield 1.

That’s right. Put your helmet back on and pick up the M1911 – you need to head back into either Battlefield 4 or Battlefield Hardline if you want to get the M1911 “The Incarcerator” weapon skin in Battlefield 1, as well as the Road to Battlefield 1 Dog Tag. You’ll also get a Gold Battlepack in whichever game you complete the mission in.

Here’s what you need to do:

M1911 Community Mission
Jump into any Battlefield 4 or Battlefield Hardline multiplayer mode and map and get 100 kills with the M1911 to get the M1911 “The Incarcerator” weapon skin and Road to Battlefield 1 Dog Tag in Battlefield 1, and a Gold Battlepack in either Battlefield 4 or Battlefield Hardline (whichever you complete the mission in). This mission is active between October 12, 2016 9AM PT and October 17, 2016 9AM PT.
